I would like to slip Maxi in somewhere too. Perhaps Maxi right and Cole left or vice versa Dirk does not feature in these sides I note
[/quote]

Maybe people see him as part of the Benitez era. I wouldn't bother playing him on the wing unless we were winning and needed to conserve a lead because he's just not quick enough to dribble past a fullback, nor accurate enough in his delivery...he's got superb movement and anticipation in the box and would do the 'donkey' work which Torres would appreciate, so I would play him as a (reserve) striker, same goes to Babel aswell.

Re: Meireles.

FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I LOVE HIM....

No shit... i think the guy is amazing.

He is so composed in the centre of the park and one of those players that always wants to be on the ball. He is very creative but he also has that edge.

oohhhhhhhhhhhhhh.......... i came online today expecting more bad news.. but this...*cries* me so haaaaaappy!

So who do you guys think has been most impressive so far??

Sanchez looked amazing for Chile..
Yaya Toure dominated the midfield against Portugal.. That being said.. ive always been a huge fan of Meireles.
Honda was very impressive for Japan against some VERY big lads.
Van de Wiel(sp?) young right back for Holland looked very nimble

ah thanks Gene...

Ive been going on about him for years.. i really rate him... He was in a lot of my preseason wish lists that were discussed on here..


yay yay yay
 
Re: Meireles.

Porto fans don't seem to rate him that highly.

They suggest he's 'solid' to 'decent', and they're just happy he had a decent world cup

Re: Meireles.

i thought he looked quite classy, a poor mans alonso that keeps the ball moving

all that matters is he's 10x the player lucas is. although he has a lot of beckham twatoos

It has to be bitterness at him leaving (he would have left on a free if they didn't sell).

Same as we've had people slagging off Mascherano when it was obvious he would leave.

Your comment makes me happy!!!!

Guys, Gareth Thomas has passed the verdict. We can relax now!!!! At least i will...

He was good in the world cup for Portugal. I have not seen or heard of him.

This are the football adjectives/terminologies i would associate with him...
Box-to-box
Creative
Good Passing
Excellent late runs into the box.

I would still feel better if we get shut off Lucas and bring in another DM who is quite mobile.

Meireles is average.

[/quote]

Well he isnt anything special but its not like we are going to go and spend 20mil or so on a defensive midfielder like diarra or cambiasso etc. So for around 10mil Meireles or Khedira would be great.

Also the defence is that dodgy, Skrtel and Carra alternate and Agger is a good player. As for johnson and figueroa they can help attack. Not that defensive but ahhwell

[/quote]

I stick with my original judgement of he isnt anything special like mascherano, but for 10mil he would be a great signing 🙂
 
Re: Meireles.

I woke up to this beautiful news 🙂

He was the only player I thought was any good for Portugal in the World Cup.

Looked like the only player who actually put in any effort too.

Gets into the box alot, no problems physically or technically - lets just hope he can now develop into a Liverpool-class player here.

This is the first signing this since Rafa's departure which has actually made me smile!

Isn't life just one big roller coaster?
 
Re: Meireles.

Don't think so yet.

Hopefully it is by today and you have something to drink to at Drinkies tonight 8)

And 3 points against the Baggies, of course.
 
Re: Meireles.

This is a cracking signing. Great midfielder that ticks every box. Fucking made up, I've wanted us to sign him for years.

Great engine and a fantastic passer of the ball. Doesn't shy out of a challenge either.

According to Jornal de Noticias, which is Portugals biggest newspaper, he has just arrived at Merseyside, and will try to finalize his deal today.

YES!!

Oh, and according to Dominic King in the Echo, Roy will get to spend everything from the Mascher fee. Left back, midfielder and a striker.

He's gonna spend £20 Million on a left back, midfielder and a striker?
That's not nearly enough money.

You've forgot the wages as well so where back to that 50 quid you mentioned.
 
Re: Meireles.

Maybe we get the 4m we were offering the traitorous shitbag before he went to Barca. Anyways, I'm just glad that this all looks like it's on.
